Why It Is Important To Schedule Blog Posts.

This article is going to help you learn why it is important to schedule blog posts, especially on your WordPress blog.

Blogging is not as difficult as some suppose, and neither is it easy as others guess, it all depends on what intentions you have when you begin blogging, most specifically whether you are going to take blogging as part-time or full-time work.

Writing content regularly is the fundamental basis of blogging, and if you slack in that aspect, then it is not blogging that you are really into.

The simple point to note here is that you must write content whether you like it or not; period!

And the simplest way to achieve that is to schedule your posts, so in this article, I am going to reveal to you why it is important to schedule your blog posts.

Why is it important to schedule posts?

If you have been asking the question: why is it important to schedule posts? then check out the 6 points I will list and explain below.

1. Scheduling your posts will give you absolute control over your content.
2. It will also give you the opportunity of writing longer posts.
3. You can make the most of your blog posts when you schedule them.
4. You will have enough time to read and research.
5. You can take a break or go on a holiday or vacation.
6. It will help you relieve some stress.

1. Scheduling your posts will give you absolute control over your content

Scheduling your posts will help you know exactly how many of them you have to deliver every week, as well as the deadline for their delivery.

Scheduling will also help you to write your posts in advance and plan your week ahead, and then get time to attend to other daily routines.

And in so doing you will gain absolute control over all your content.

2. It will also give you the opportunity of writing longer posts.

Bloggers who are not fond of sticking to a certain schedule for posting their articles will always publish them as soon as they write them. However, this is not always wise.

Because sometimes you may finish and publish the article only to discover a few days later that there is more valuable information you could add to it.

But when an article has been published, there is nothing more you can do about it. But if you write in advance, you will be able to make the necessary changes before publishing it.

3. You can make the most of your blog posts when you schedule them.

The time for publishing a post on a blog really matters a lot; because if a post goes live at the right time, more people are likely going to read and share it.

For instance, if you prefer to write at night and publish your post early in the morning, instead of worrying about waking up to publish it, you can schedule the time you wish your post to go live.

And after doing that can go to sleep without worrying about missing your wake up time to publish.

4. You will have enough time to read and research.

Having a posting schedule will give you more time to work on your content, which includes doing deeper research to get the necessary information that will add value to your readers.

I consider this point the most important of all advantages of scheduling blog posts because writing articles that do not add value to your readers will make them abandon your blog, or never come back again.

So instead of writing a post in a hurry, come up with a plan like; listing out all of the sources you might need that will offer more interesting facts and useful information in your posts.

5. You can take a break or go on a holiday or vacation.

Scheduling your blog posts will help you to always take a break, and go on a holiday or vacation.

It’s simple, just write out the number of posts you need for the week you want to take a break; for example, if you always publish 3 posts in a day, then 21 posts are going to take 1 week.

So write them out and schedule 3 to be live every day, then go on your holiday and vacation while your post gets live when their time is due.

6. It will help you relieve some stress.

One of the reasons why you should schedule your posts is that it will allow you to relieve some part of the stress that comes with blogging.

For instance, a lack of scheduling your blog post will have you writing late at night, or stressing to meet up with your publishing plan when you realize that some days have gone by and you haven’t published a single post.
